My View of Life on the Dock
Only thing missing is the color being maroon!
Could not resist!
More to come we hope!
At your GMG holiday party I told Sista Felicia that I wanted some GMG something to have in pictures to send back from Argentina. Her first words… don’t tell Joey! So she dug up this banner and her mom hand delivered it to our office!
Live from Buenos Aires… Good Morning Gloucester!
Leaving for Mendosa tomorrow which is the wine country (Malbec) and will shoot you some more.
Adios for now!
Thanks,
Ken

“This is Adare who just returned from Kenya,” writes Deborah French, Library Director of the TOHP Burnham Library in Essex, Massachusetts. The family captioned the photograph “So here is Cape Ann Reads with a giraffe!” What a super travel photo, and kind shout out to Cape Ann Reads and Cape Ann.
Several captivating and compassionate picture books included in the Once Upon a Contest: Selection from Cape Ann Reads travel exhibition currently on view at Cape Ann Museum focus on animal friends. Stop by to read the new books and see if you can find all the giraffe illustrations.

Lovely to see ice sailing at Niles Pond under the twilit January Wolf Moon last week. The sun was setting while the not-quite-full moon had risen early.
Ice Sailing at Niles Pond
I took Charlotte out Friday at dusk to look for the moon and we found it at Niles Pond, along with hockey players and ice sailors. We can thank her favorite storybook Good Night, Moon for her lunar passion.

These teens had 4 minutes to dial a particular number on a rotary phone. If you are of a certain age, you cannot help but smirk a little as you watch them figuring it out. I admit to laughing out loud. It’s interesting though to think about what this says about how teens problem-solve today.

One of the things I love most about Cape Ann is that winter, spring, certainly summer, and fall you can find signs of a busy working waterfront everywhere you look. While these images speak to the hard work done by many, they are often also really pretty in their own right.
We recently took a ride to Parker River Wildlife Refuge, expecting to see some effects of the government shutdown. However, it was business as usual. The window at the gate was manned and I saw no evidence of neglect or damage as has happened in some other federal locations.
We did see this hawk looking at us a little bit like “You lookin’ at me?” I see only one leg here which I found interesting.
There are so many geese! These seemed to be marching across the hilltop.
The presence of birders alerted me to these guys. They might be Dunlins (?). I’d be happy for someone to verify or correct this. It was lots of fun to watch them scurry and scrounge.
